Updated: New River Gorge Housing Development

Green Mountain
Sacred Cliffs, Colorado

Fayetteville, WV.- The Charleston Gazette reports that the National Parks Conservation Association and a Fayetteville resident filed suit in Fayette County Circuit Court Friday to prohibit the Fayette County Commission from approving the town of Fayetteville’s annexation of a proposed housing development that includes plans for houses to be built on the rim of the New River gorge.

Thanks to Derek for the alert.

Here's a link to the NCPA Action Alert regarding the issue.

Here's a link to a study by a WVU Professor who did a study of the economic impact of the development.
